Colorado Premier Training Announces Partnership with USA Cycling

Colorado Premier Training (CPT) and the National Governing Body for the sport of cycling in the United States, USA Cycling, have partnered to create the ìOfficial Wind Tunnel of USA Cycling.î This relationship makes CPT an Official Supplier to U.S. National Teams and a Member Benefits Provider, offering a 10% discount on wind tunnel testing sessions and fitting to all USA Cycling members.

The partnership coincides with CPTís upcoming opening of its own wind tunnel testing facility in Fort Collins, Colo. By measuring wind drag, power output and heart rate simultaneously, CPT can accurately determine the most optimal body position for each athlete, thereby offering Position OptimizationTM Coaching Services.

ìThe facility itself is world-class, and to provide the best coaching service possible, CPT has hired Mark Cote from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to run wind tunnel operations,î said CPT owner Steve Owens. Mark Cote comes to CPT with experience working with athletes such as Alberto Contador (2007 Tour de France Champion) and Carlos Sastre, as well as members of Team CSC, Liberty Seguros, TIAA-CREF and other professional teams.

ìI feel privileged to work with CPT and know that we undoubtedly have the best tools to optimize the positions of countless cyclists and triathletes. Iím really excited about this opportunity,î said Cote.

USA Cycling members can take advantage of this discount by simply providing the USA Cycling membership coupon code upon scheduling an appointment. Log into your USA Cycling account at usacycling.com, to redeem your 10% off coupon code. For more information, or to register, call (970) 672-4780.
